Time for a review of the rules...

The most important factor in a critical NFL game is not decided by athletic ability, offensive strategy or coaching finess. It is decided by a flip of a coin.

Why bother with wasting the fan and the players time? Why not just roll the dice and see who gets a higher number; or draw straws or cards? A game can be fought hard between two evenly matched teams with great defense and great offense and roll to a tie just to have the most critical "play" of the game turn into a flip of a coin.

Why waste 4 quarters of my life and the life of the players if you are going to have the game be decided by factors beyond human control. Just set the two teams up in Madden and simulate the game and tell us the score.... The current NFL overtime rule makes regulation play, skill and coaching nothing but attempt to get more plays for a highlight reel.

Either change the overtime rule or admit that american football is as retarded a sport as the "other" world's football. The best team lost, but they weren't out played... They were out flipped.
